Semantic Compliance is the ontological approach to regulatory reporting and oversight, using W3C standard extensions to the Web for specification and design, and semantic web technologies for implementation.

Jayzed Data Models Inc. publishes the ontologies on a set of related websites. The publishing sites have the OWL (turtle notation) code and URIs for import. The home pages are a good starting point to lean more and download tutorials.

Semantic rules implement laws and regulations of Dodd-Frank and the Investment Adviser Act. An ontology version of SEC form ADV (advisors) loaded with fund data. The ontology evaluates, whether an advisor must register with the SEC.
